Guaranteeing a cats eye/rank 1 weapon would be pointless to begin with since it'd be stuck on the account that wins it, which could very well just be a burner.

Takes a day to make a burner into a main, that's a nonissue.

Issue is it isn't even worth doing that, despite how fast/easy it is.

I think he meant if its a new player they could start the game with any of those accounts that won the mythic. What if its in the middle of the list of characters? The horror, has to be #1
If mule 15 wins you delete 1-14 and it becomes slot 1

Oh sweet page irritation

Today a friend came back from his health leave. Took him over 3 months it seems.

But as soon as he came back, it was announced he would change departments.

He made a speech, sounded like he had to do it. It was implied the works environment was being bad for him.

We are both IT workers. My department has another one in a health leave for over a year already.

My predecessor simply left as soon as he had a chance.

My predecessor's predecessor also left when he had a chance.

My predecessor's colleague also changed department as soon as they could.

One of those had to take a 30 days health leave at some point.

Cant help but to think how hazardous is to work in my company's IT.

Kinda sad, as working in IT is really fun. But not fun being constantly demanded for every snigle stuff, from morning to night

If I had a rank 1, I would surely grab the kupo shield, and that mule gonna become a crafting mule.

I got that shield when a mule won it and I never used it once, I regret it. I think I would rather the table, but I don't remember if it could be sent.

Bringing a brand new char up to your main just to use a bonanza weapon would also be excessively *** stupid

So would taking hundreds of characters to get the bonanza win, so, yes

If you were stupid enough to do that, you're certainly stupid enough to change that character to a new main.

Unless you're like me and spend way too much time faffing about and never making any meaningful progress.

So you won a Cat's Eye on a different POLID from your main char. Congratulations, heres what you have to do to turn that into a Mythic weapon:
Complete the entire ToAU mission line
Complete parts / all of RoV for the Rhapsody KI's to speed things up, which will involve doing other unrelated Missions, including SoA missions that have time gated content via imprimaturs.
Kill Odin (not difficult, but will eat into your Ichor farming)
Kill the 3 ToAU kings
Kill all 4 Salvage I Bosses
Do all 50 assaults (without use of ASE)


Its one thing to run 16 chars on multiple POLIDs if you already multibox, but doing it single box just to "re-roll a new main with a mythic" is dumb.

That's just to make the weapon too. Doesn't include the effort of (re)clearing Gaol V20/25, farming omen cards, redoing missions, etc etc

I would rather they put the token or ichor item in there instead of the cats eye. Ambuscade kinda trivialized alex requirement.

If the process of unlinking Playonline accounts was something you could do on the website, I would be much more tempted.

Could give each winning playonline account it's own SE ID and make it like a gift account for friends "oh coming back? try this guy, start fresh but 30,000 alex already farmed"

That's always a fun question.

0 is a correct answer, 1 is a correct answer and 2 is a correct answer, but which answer is the most correct.

A straw is a torus like a doughnut or a coffee mug.

The more I think on it, the more I'd argue it's only the one hole. Even when he closed the one end of the hole, it still only had one hole. A hole is just any single cavity, whether it's all the way through or only partial.

If you get a hole in your sock, you'd say you have "a" hole in your sock. And whether it was inside-out or not, you'd still identify it as the same hole. Looking at a tunnel from two sides, it may have two entrances, but it's still the same one cavity, still the same one hole.

I got really into topology when I was 12, never thought I would ever use it, just another neat mathematical toy to play with.

A hole, by definition, goes all the way through. A coffee mug has a cavity and a hole but in topology its the same as a soda straw which has a hole but no cavity.



Then again we didn't have interwebs to argue on when I was 12....

Nooooo! I was a fool! A damn fool!

I finished the Windurst past quests and got the Romaa Mihgo trust...

But she was only non-unity trust #85!

I have to get yet one more trust still to level my trusts up to 120.

Damn it all! Damn it all to hell!

I'm at the point where I need only very specific trusts, so I've gotta do the Serpent General quests to get Zazarg and Gadalar. Other than that, it's like... I still don't have ones that take a lot of time to get like Ygnas, or ones that only come up arbitrarily from login points.

Im starting to hate seeing my boss getting more unreasonable and picky about work.

I mean, our work is way over our own capacity. Its obvious we gonna be missing deadlines and quality in our deliveries.

There is really no point demanding some stuffs to be done "by the book", when the reality generally dont follow such book
